In the long long ago, I remember having to limit my terminal scrollback to avoid things getting laggy. That hasn’t been the case for a long time, because terminals started taking performance seriously.
So I think advertising speed is more of a table stakes situation than a competitive advantage. I want to see that a new terminal emulator is thinking about speed because if they’re not, I can probably rule them out as an option immediately.
- ElCapitanMarkla 3y agoI hadn’t had this issue for years, about 4 months ago I started at a new company which had a big rails monolith. I’m now super conscious of ever resizing iterm, if I leave a terminal running for more than a day resizing the terminal brings the entire laptop to its knees.
